I watched Body of Proof and I thought it was pretty good. I liked the new cast members. I don’t watch very many shows an ABC, but I don’t remember seeing this show advertised very much. It’s a little odd. Other shows that are starting a new season are heard from all over the place. Evan on cable channels, but not Body of Proof.

I watched NCIS, NCIS:LA and Body Of Proof. Even though I miss Peter, Bud and Sam, I believe it was a good start. More cops then medical, but. Interesting to see what develops. Sam being with the FBI and Bud living near could theoretically appear at times.
